Hi
In My entire experience in embedded, I have worked with C or Assembly. Documentation is not a problem due to comments and the next person to read it, knows what it is for and what the code should do.
About C++ being Fast and close to Assembly, Well that depends on Optimization used while compiling. But C will be a sure bet any day, As C++ itself is developed using C. There is lot of wastage of Code memory and unnecessary wrappers (some times) or overriding functions that eat up memory on stack as-well-as consume time. But …If you are to design a Big Software like ATC where there are many modules, then Obviously C++ is a good language to use also I have seen it been used in Simulation softwares. But if its small thing ..Lets say drive the 1553B card, then it’ll be C ..I am not sure on ADA.
But there could be people using C++ for small application in embedded scenario, but I personally feel that is not a good solution. May be I am wrong.

I guess you mean to say Object Oriented Programming, Creating Objects for an entity, Well I have seen people use that in simulation , where each object in the view is an Object, and has some behavior associated with it, could be Visual or Action.
